Hi,
My mom passed away 4 months ago with pancreatic cancer. She passed away 3 weeks after being diagnosed. However, the surgery she had to "cure" it is actually what killed her. It was the worst experience I have ever been through in my life. My dad passed away 10 years ago with esophageal cancer. Died 9 months after diagnosis. My grandpa on my mom's side died with lung cancer. My grandma on my dad's side died with stomach cancer..she also had breast cancer. My dad's sister had breast cancer and he also had two aunts that died from ovarian cancer. feel doomed. I am 42 and have a 39 year old sister. We pray that we will never get cancer, but there is so much of it in our family it's hard not to worry about it. Anyone else struggling with this? Thanks.
